    Tips when chaning the timing chain

    Hi!
    I currently have my car a shop for a timing chain change. Since they need to take out the engine and that takes a lot of work overall to change the timing chain I am thinking about other parts that might need to change while the engine is out!
    I often live by "If its not broken, dont fix it" but since i want to keep the car for a while im just curious what other part might need to change or any recommendation.

    The car is a BMW 520i F11 at currently 180000 km / around 112k miles


    Best regards!
